Operation
Abacus columns are to be installed and maintained in strict accordance with our product manual. Raising and lowering of the column must be carried out with the use of both the correct counterbalance unit and operating lever. Under no circumstances should manual handling be used to carry out this operation.

Training
Training on all Base-Hinged Columns is available either at Abacus or on site at your facility. Take a look at our Training page for more information.

Please note
We strongly recommend that Abacus counterbalance units are only operated by persons who have successfully completed training carried out by an approved Abacus trainer.

Technical data for columns & masts
The performance data for columns and masts gives their basic technical attributes only. The technical performance of a column or mast will be affected by local site conditions (terrain type, distance to sea, site altitude, windspeed) and the headload being carried.

Please Contact the Abacus Technical team to confirm the suitability of a column or mast for your application.
